Depth Is Simple




"nothing or no thing?
nowhere or now here?"
Wayne Dyer

Wayne Dyer remains a presence as his wisdom lives beyond his physical life.  I admired the cadence of his responses, as though he were gathering answers that were just then flowing through him.  He was so into the moment he was open to hear information anew.

Wayne Dyer divided the letters in a word to change or differentiate meaning.  It wasn't about being clever.  It was about diving into the depths of simplicity.   I had never considered the difference nor the similarities within the word of nothing.  Meditation escorts me to experience the quiet  of solitude which I refer to as nothingness.  It is a suspended place in time I desire.  Conversely, there is  no thing I want to be attached to as a distraction.   Similar is the word nowhere.  I struggle with my endless lessons feeling like I am getting nowhere.  And yet, the importance is really now here.

It is elementary to be present with nothing to deepen our connection with the Divine. Although there is much to be learned in complex religiosity, we create an intimate oneness by being present without distraction. When our endless quest for the sacred finally weighs us down, we fall into the depth of simplicity.
